Christmas Tag

This is a tag I made for the challenge at Scrapyland. It actually came together easily because most of the parts were in my scrap box. The doves were illustrated by Marcella Hawley for Flourishes. I stamped and colored them last year but did not use them. The flower was made last year too,and I had some left over wheat from another project. I cut and embossed the tag sponged it and then added my layers. I did need to cut the holly leaves and the pine bough.

The poinsettia is a spellbinders die.
The holly is Cheery Lynn
The pine bough and wheat are IO

I will enter the tag at Scrapyland's Here

Oh wow, Kathy, this is stunning!! I love the beautiful poinsettia and the greenery and wheat stems you added!! The birds are so pretty and colored perfectly!! Gorgeous tag my friend!! Thank you so much for playing along at Scrapy Land!! Have a great day :)

Egads that's GORGEOUS! I love all of your die cut accents, and the beautiful colored images, Marcella has the most wonderful illustrations!! I also would like to say that this is a GIFT and doesn't need to top one! Right?!?! Gorgeous my dear! (oh and just yesterday I was rifling through a lovely fat envelope of die cuts you sent me, I recognize those wheat accents) ;)

I immediately felt the Sam as Donna. This is a GIFT as well as a tag. Love all of the die elements that enhance the beautifully colored birds by Marcella. No one else does it as good as she does. On top of all of this, you used cuts from your scrap box. I love that too. This is seriously gorgeous. Just a note. My SIL is here for a visit. She wanted to see my cards, but the first one I showed her was your birthday card. It is still front and center on my desk.

Beautiful tag, Kathy! I love Marcella's images - they are gorgeous, and the use of all these die cuts with the tag makes your creation extra special! Thanks for sharing your pretty project in the Scrapy Land Challenge! Hope you will join us again! hugs and blessings, de {Creative Smiles}

Wow! This is absolutely gorgeous! I love the poinsettia, so beautiful! The doves image is so pretty and you colored it perfectly! I really love this tag! Thanks for playing along with us at Scrapy Land Challenge #24!

That is so gorgeous. I love everything about it. And, I would never thought of using wheat on a Christmas design but my friend it looks wonderful that way. Those doves are super great too! And, I always am in love with flowers.
